Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for the portioned delivery of flowable masses with a drum that can be rotated by more than 360 ° and a transport device arranged underneath it that holds the mass portions.
- Devices for the portioned delivery of flowable masses on a conveyor have a wide range of uses. All substances, be it synthetic resins, food, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and. The like, which can be converted from a flowable form into a test form, for example by exposure to cold, heat or chemical reaction, can be portioned with such devices.
- the shape of the deposited mass drops can be determined by coordinating the rotational speed of the conveying device, for example an endless steel belt, under the drum and the rotational speed of the drum. Point the falling drops in the direction of movement of the conveyor, for example the endless belt, the same Speed like this on, it is avoided that the mass drops have a preferred direction of propagation, but only the adhesive forces between the surface of the conveyor and the flowable mass determine the size of the substantially circular drop.
- the conveyor itself then occurs, for example, by the action of heat, by cooling or also by chemical reaction, but even tixotropic substances can solidify and solidify by ending a mixing movement.
- the then solidified bulk portions are withdrawn from the transport device in a known manner, for example at the end of a deflecting roller for the endless belt, from which it is split off.
- DE 28 53 054 C3 describes a device for the portioned delivery of flowable masses, a rotating cylinder being arranged above an endless belt.
- the cylinder has a plurality of continuous radial bores and the flowable mass is axially supplied in a further cylindrical container arranged inside.
- In the inner container is only in one area, u. Between the lower vertex area, a series of holes are provided through which the material, if they coincide with holes in the outer cylinder, can exit. The material leakage is caused here by the higher pressure that is exerted on the material in the inner cylinder.
- a doctor blade which cooperates with the outer surface of the outer drum so that the openings which cooperate with the openings of the inner drum have the mass to be pressed out on their outer region are exempt.
- a scraper has the disadvantage that the possibly already solidified material is pressed along the surface of the outer drum into the trailing openings, so that when openings are in operation, the mass cannot emerge from all at the same time, but only certain opening processes, such as, for example Heating the solidified mass or by pressing it out must be carried out.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a device for the portioned delivery of flowable masses, in which excess masses that have emerged from a channel of the outer drum are returned to the bore and in which so desired, a pre-cooling of the emerging masses before they fall onto the transport device.
- outlet openings define an outer cylindrical surface which is concentric with the cylindrical jacket and in which the outlet openings lie, then a completely uniform distribution of the discharged residual masses can be achieved due to the centrifugal forces, since no outlet opening can represent a preferred place for accumulation of the extruded masses over another.
- each outlet opening is arranged in one surface, a competitive distribution between two outlet openings is avoided, so that uniform portioning of the masses is achieved particularly easily.
- the elevations protruding from the jacket are frustoconical, they have uniform temperature gradients in the direction of the channels, based on the circumference of the truncated cone, and furthermore ensure particularly low flow resistance for the flowable masses on the outer surface of the drum.
- preferred valleys for the flow of the flowable masses can be formed, which can be oriented, for example, in the circumferential direction or also normally, so that, for example, the temperature of the mass is too high and the viscosity is too low can be distributed on the surface without undesired dripping, while at the same time cooling the mass is achieved so that the viscosity increases and the mass is then fed back to the region of the outlet opening and then with the desired viscosity.
- the elevations are formed by inserts defined in bores in the jacket, the elevations can for example, made of a different material than the cylindrical jacket, or there is also the possibility that such a jacket with elevations can be manufactured particularly easily, in which the inserts can be manufactured in a separate operation and then only attached in the bore in the jacket become.
- the device can be adapted to the flowable masses to be portioned, for example by changing the shape of the elevations, the diameter of the channel, the special design of the outlet opening and the like. Like. done particularly easily.
- the elevations have surfaces that have a fall line that runs normal to the longitudinal extent of the valleys, then a particularly low flow resistance for the remaining masses in the valleys is guaranteed.
- At least one radially extending groove is provided in the end region of the drum, with which the elevations are delimited from the end of the drum, it is easily avoided that the residual masses on surfaces of the drum distributed that have no surveys with outlet openings.
- an at least one end area of the drum is provided with an annular surface that is free of elevations, in particular cylindrical, a further barrier for the axial distribution of the residual masses is achieved.
- the elevations are arranged at a uniform distance from one another in rows along generatrices of the cylindrical jacket, a device with a particularly high turnover is ensured, since the maximum number of portions of mass can be offset along a generatrix.
- a heating device which partially surrounds the drum, in particular partially envelops it at a distance from it, a backflow can be achieved particularly easily even with rapidly solidifying masses by lowering the viscosity via the action of heat.
- the heating device has an, in particular electrical, infrared radiator, the amount of heat which is applied to the surface of the drum can be controlled particularly precisely.
- channels from the outlet opening to the inside of the drum have the same cross-section with an identical cross-sectional area, then a channel with constant flow resistance is ensured, with further vortex points, corners and the like. Like. In which areas the material can settle, can be avoided particularly effectively.
- the channels open into the interior of the drum into a distribution channel which runs parallel to the axis of the drum during the delivery of the flowable masses, a particularly simple and at the same time effective feeding of the individual channels is ensured.
- the distribution channel is fed via outlet nozzles which are distributed in the direction of the axis and to which the flowable masses are supplied via a feed channel running parallel to the axis of the drum, then a uniform distribution of the flowable mass can be achieved, at the same time the nozzles, if they are raised above the lower surface of the feed channel, for example, prevent solids that could clog the channels from entering the distribution channel and then the individual channels.
- nozzles have different cross sections in accordance with the pressure distribution in the supply channel, then a uniform pressure distribution in the distribution channel can be obtained for the flowable masses in the axial direction of the drum.
- outlet openings of the elevations can be guided past a, in particular stationary, doctor blade, then can If necessary, after the excess mass has been located at the end of the survey by the centrifugal forces via the squeegee, further manipulation can be achieved depending on the position of the squeegee, so that either the low-viscosity mass can be pressed back into the channel or a uniform distribution of the mass on the drum is achieved .
- the valleys running in the circumferential direction and, if necessary, the surfaces of the elevations can be guided past the squeegee, for example the squeegee is designed like a comb, which rests both over the outlet openings and along the generatrices of the cone or pyramid surfaces and in the valley, so in certain cases Cases an additional discharge of excess mass can be achieved.
- the system 9 shown in Fig. 1 has a device 11 for portioned delivery of flowable masses, which is arranged above a transport device 13, which has an endless conveyor belt 15 made of steel, which is deflected at both ends around rollers 17 (it is only a roller shown).
- the conveyor belt 15 is moved in the direction of arrow 19 by a motor, not shown.
- the device 11 is formed with a drum 23, which can be rotated by more than 360 ° in the direction of the arrow 117, with a cylindrical jacket and an inner concentric cylinder 21, which have a common horizontal axis 25 (FIG. 3).
- the drum 23 slides on the outer cylinder surface 27 of the inner cylinder 21, this serving as a bearing surface which enables the relative rotation of the cylinder 21 and drum 23 to one another.
- the inner cylinder 21 is fixed by the holder 29, as shown in FIG. 1.
- the holder 29 can be of any design.
- the inner cylinder 21 and thus also the drum 23 are arranged horizontally above the conveyor belt 15.
- the drum 23 forms a casing for the stationary inner cylinder 21 which is rotatable about the axis 25.
- the rotation of the drum 23 is made possible by the motor 18 via the drive gear 33 and the circumferential ring gear 31 (FIG. 1) at the end of the drum 23.
- Other drive means e.g. B. belts, cardan shafts can be provided for the relative movement of the drum to the inner cylinder instead of the above-mentioned drive.
- the stationary cylinder 21 has a lower part 37 and a tempering part 39. Both parts 37 and 39 are connected to one another by screws 41 and 43. The connection can also be made in other ways.
- the lower part 37 and the tempered part 39 have outer part-cylindrical surfaces which together form the outer cylinder surface 27.
- the inner sections of the two parts 37 and 39 are formed such that an axially extending feed channel 45 is formed, which extends essentially over the entire length of the cylinder 21.
- the viscous mass is fed under pressure via the feed 47 into the feed channel 45 (FIG. 1).
- the feed 47 is connected to the end of the stationary cylinder 21 in order to feed the viscous masses into the feed channel 45.
- the lower part 37 of the stationary cylinder has a multiplicity of radial passages 49 which point downward from the axial feed channel 45.
- Each radial passage 49 forms the part of a channel through which the viscous masses are pressed out of the inner cylinder.
- the exit ends 51 each Passage 49 directs the viscous masses against the inner cylindrical surface 53 of the rotating drum 23.
- the distribution channel 55 forms part of the exit path and is provided between the exit ends of the passages 49 and the drum 23 to form a slot or the like along the inner surface of the Form drum 23.
- the distribution channel 55 causes the mass to be extruded to be pressed out with constant pressure along the entire channel, thereby heating the uniformity of the mass drops 56 which are pressed out onto the conveyor belt 15. It is evident that a distribution channel does not have to be provided if the bushings are identically numbered and aligned with the shaping channels, as described later. Of course, other shapes for the outlet channel or the inner cylinder 21 can also be provided.
- nozzles 57 are provided at the mouth of each radial passage 49.
- the nozzles 57 have a truncated cone-shaped cap 59 and a channel 61, which can have a different cross section from nozzle to nozzle for pressure equalization (not shown) and extend along the entire length of the pipe section.
- the nozzles 57 effect an even pressure distribution.
- the fact that the channels 61 have the mouth end above the lower surface of the axial feed channel 45 enables sedimentation from the mass at the bottom of the axial feed channel. This ensures that no sediments move the openings of the bushings 49.
- the tempering part 39 shown in FIG. 3 is preferably made of a heat and cold conductive material, e.g. B. stainless steel.
- a heat conduction channel 63 is provided in the temperature-controlled part 39, which is closed at one end of the temperature-controlled part 39 and forms a continuous channel in and out of the temperature-controlled part 39.

- Each elevation is approximately 0.25 inches (6.7 mm) high from the bottom.
- the elevations should be as close as possible to one another, the valleys still having to be of sufficient size to absorb the excess mass.
- the diameter of the forming channels depends on the size of the drops to be formed and the viscosity of the mass and is generally between 1.5 mm and 3.0 mm.

- each edge area is formed by a smooth cylindrical surface that is free of elevations (the ring gear 31 adjoins an edge area 111).
- the diameter of the drum 23 in the edge region is larger than the diameter of the drum with the valleys.
- An angled annular blocking surface 113 (FIGS. 2 and 4) is provided between each edge region 111 and valleys 115 so that they are immediately adjacent to the corresponding edge regions.
- the mass to be pressed is passed under pressure through the feed 47 (FIG. 1) into the axial feed channel 45 (FIG. 4) of the stationary cylinder 21.
- the inner tempering part 39 causes the mass to be extruded to be kept at a certain temperature, whereby a desired viscosity of the mass is maintained.
